My 10 year old son and I made these during hurricane Sandy.My 10 year old son and I made these during hurricane Sandy. The receipe was so easy and fun. The cupcakes were extremely moist and very delicious. All the kids had a friend over and LOVED them. Beating the 10x sugar for 10 minutes was a great suggestion by someone and I added a little extra cinnamon to the frosting on another suggestion. (THANX) Only suggestion would be to refridgerate the frosting for a little bit before putting on the cupcakes, it may make it easier to spread by being less runny.

Easy and goodI made this recipe today. I believe if I made it with the amount of powdered sugar in the frosting as described in the recipe; we wouldn't of been able to eat it.
I added a little at a time so I wouldn't over sweeten the frosting. There must of been an error in the amount of powdered sugar (16 oz) and yet only 8 oz. of cream cheese.
Thank you
Barbara

I love cinnamon so I added an additional 1/2 tsp to the frosting and a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar to the top of each one after frosting.

These were amazingly moist and yummy!These were amazingly moist and yummy! The batter for the cupcakes was so heavy I was afraid they would be dry, but they were so moist, they almost fell apart! And the cream cheese frosting was like nothing I've had before and so easy to make! I won't buy it in the store again!

I have been making these cupcakes for the last two years.I have been making these cupcakes for the last two years. They are great! I make them for an election day bake sale and they sell out. I agree with carodonnell that you can use less confectioner's sugar: it is a bit sweet. I have had no problem finding a spice cake mix.

They flattened upon removal from oven, which often times, will indicate under-done baked good. However, I baked a little longer than time posted and still under cooked. Flavor ok but nothing great. Did not even bother with the icing.

After being refrigerated it tasted just like pumpkin pie. It was so easy to make, I can't wait to make one for my dad who loves pumpkin because I know he will love it!

I have not made this yet but am going to make it for halloween.I have not made this yet but am going to make it for halloween. What I want to say is, When you are using powdered sugar in a frosting recipe, ya have to beat it at least 10 minutes to get rid of the powder taste and texture. I am excited about this cuz the grandkids love pumkin
